Fried Chicken Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Begin by marinating the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor and tenderness.

  2. 2

    Bread the Chicken

    In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the flour mixture until fully coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded chicken breasts. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Make the Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine Lusty Mustard and mayonnaise. Mix well and set aside.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread the Lusty Mustard mayo on the bottom half of the burger buns. Add a fried chicken breast, top with lettuce leaves and pickles, then place the top half of the bun on.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the sandwiches warm with your favorite sides like fries or coleslaw.
